About Folk Federation of NSW
ABOUT
The Folk Federation of NSW has been supporting the growth and development of folk music since 1970. We facilitate statewide development of the folk arts, dance and, in particular folk music of all genres and ethnic diversity.
Through affiliated folk clubs, festivals, folk organisations, interstate bodies and our membership we link both those interested in presenting folk to the widest possible audience and those seeking to experience the folk arts through public performance and participation. Our main revenue is derived from membership.
By joining FolkFedNSW you will be part of a vibrant community helping to support our artists, folk music, dance and the associated folk arts in NSW.

As well as our Events Page we also provide a list of regular folk activities across the state. To find out more click on the FolkMail icon.
